Oil mix

[craigman]

Fellas,
are any of you using synthetic oils in your premix?
I've used it on my large scale r/c stuff with outstanding results.
Just wondering if you use it and what your opinions are either way.
Thanks!

Craig

What Chris said... + if it meets the engine manufacturers requirements, then it's ok.

Re: Oil mix

i'm running a '78 merc thunderbolt 700 that has never in its 32 years had a drop of synthetic oil in it and it runs like a top. i guess i've never bothered to look for this debate before so i was unaware that it falls into the category of something like "merc vs. rude" or "fiberglass vs. aluminum".
